I am dealing with their Immigration & Outreach Director. I don't think congressmen personally get involved in anything if they don't have to benefit from it...like free PR, etc.

Hey CJ-V quick question, which office you working with? I've tried Schumer and Clinton. No response as of yet. It's been 2 weeks since I did this. thanks

Senators are not likely to help based on my experience. You will get better responses from your local congressman. Where do you live in NY?

You have to go on the congressional website..

http://www.house.gov/htbin/zipfind

And contact the local office and possibly a rep there can help.

Thanks I'll try that. My local rep was up for reelection this year. I guessed he was busy with that, thats why I tried higher up. I'll get in touch with him and see if any results surface. Thanks

I initiated inquiry with my area-specific congressman.

I'm so scared and happy. Finally, we received our approvals ! It's hard to believe. Please update on the time line (11/3--APPROVED for both I-129F & I-130. Ironically, this notice came a week after I sent letters to the Comgressional members of the USCIS Oversight Committee--nine senators & my state's Rep. Do you guys remember the letter I posted here for others to use? I think that had something to do with our positive response after this long period. I don't know what to do next. Good luck to you guys and read the letter; it's with my posts. All the best--Amor1

Rock on, MM.. great stuff.

Hey CJ-Vasani - when you read this. It's CJgator. Any new word? I've had nothing on mine either since the notice that it was sent to an officer on 11-1. I am seeing now that the agents at VSC and National are becoming more and more of a pain in the a*s and not willing to divulge anything. I have run into brick walls for the last 2 days, after a successful information gathering day on Monday.

MESSAGE TO ALL OF US - WHETHER YOU LIKE OBAMA OR NOT (AND I VOTED FOR MCCAIN, BECAUSE OF TAXES, AFTER A LONG STRUGGLE ON ON THE DECISION), I HAVE GREAT CONFIDENCE HE IS THE BETTER MAN TO HELP ADVANCE OUR CAUSE ON THIS WHOLE IMMIGRATION ISSUE.

Take it easy.

No more news from VSC, but I spoke to my congressman's immigration who is sick of me calling and e-mailing. He told me that both of my applications are with an officer...and as long as there is no delay in background check, I should be hearing something soon. I hope that my congressman's aide is not annoyed enough to purposely delay my applications. he can't do that, right? that would be illegal...I must stop bothering him he is a nice guy.
